Final day at Al Salayyah scool

Interesting and eventful day.

Observed two of my colleagues who used one of the exercises I showed them in the workshops. They were sporty who did them. They did all right it being the first time. Now they will know what to do to make them work.

Also, by chance, happened to join a meeting with supervisors from various school districts. Interesting from a cultural point of view.

Had one class myself that I felt very comfortable in.

Visited all of the classes I taught these two weeks to say goodbye. I'll miss them as well as the colleagues.

Back to Jerusalem.

At sunset I found myself at the rooftop of the hotel overlooking the old city of Jerusalem. Just as I was starting to enjoy the first drink in a month, the callers of the mosques, the Greek orthodoxs, the Christians and the Jews by a mixture of various types of chanting and church bells called their disciples to their various holy places.

After about 5 minutes a big German shepard in the neighborhood apparently decided that this was too much even for a dog, and therefore joined the symphony by barking loudly.

Dinner at the American Colony hotel with Ibrahim - the pastry chef-and a professor in Arabic of the university of Bethlemem - mr. Moin.

Excellent atmosphere, good food and interesting conversation.
